Lambert Jacobsz, 162 - The Disobedient Prophet - fine art print

Additional information on the original artwork from Nationalmuseum Stockholm (© - Nationalmuseum Stockholm - www.nationalmuseum.se)

English: The Old Testament recounts how God sent a prophet to Bethel to denounce the practice of idol worship. His obedience is put to the test through an old prophet, who invites him to share a meal. Although warned against associating with the evil, he succumbs to temptation. We witness the dramatic moment when the old prophet, as the instrument of the Lord, exposes his own duplicity and condemns his brother to death. The rarely illustrated story reflects a direct engagement with the biblical text. I Gamla Testamentet berättas att Gud sände sin profet till Betel för att fördöma folkets avgudadyrkan. Hans lydnad sätts på prov när en gammal profet bjuder in honom till en måltid. Trots att han varnats för umgänge med avgudadyrkarna ger han efter för frestelsen. Här skildras det dramatiska ögonblicket då den gamle profeten, som Guds redskap, tillkännager sitt dubbelspel och dömer sin broder till döden. Detta sällsynta motiv avspeglar konstnärens direktstudium av bibeltexten.
